Hey, did you hear?! The second Great Depression is near. Stimulate the economy Put us more in debt, can’t you see? Foreclosing homes Gas prices so high All we want are answers All we get are lies GD2 Are you ready for it? Are you ready for it? Don’t know what to do Are you ready for it? GD2 Are you ready for it? Are you ready for it? Don’t know what to do Are you ready for it? Keeping the same wages How can people live? When everything is So expensive Close the factories Take to the streets So many people Don’t want to see Keep away from saying We’re in a recession Let’s welcome the Second Great Depression GD2 Are you ready for it? Are you ready for it? Don’t know what to do Are you ready for it? GD2 Are you ready for it? Are you ready for it? Don’t know what to do Are you ready for it? Thanks to the policies that govern our days None of us ever have a say Politicians have no clue what to do But I guess that’s not something new People can’t afford food, a roof on their head The government couldn’t care less instead They make the laws that bring us down And then they want to run us out of town Thanks to the policies that govern our days None of us ever have a say Politicians have no clue what to do But I guess that’s not something new People can’t afford food, a roof on their head The government couldn’t care less instead They make the laws that bring us down And then they want to run us out of town GD2 Are you ready for it? Are you ready for it? Don’t know what to do Are you ready for it? GD2 Are you ready for it? Are you ready for it? Don’t know what to do Are you ready for it?

We don’t talk for a little bit of time And then you fade slightly from my mind Wish thinking of you was something I didn’t do What a waste of time She’s always so up and down With us, it’s back and forth I know I’m not that important But I want to be around And what’s up with these games? That you love to play My heart, it can’t help it Why do I hold out hope? Thought you’d be perfect for me You being held in such esteem I want to hold your hand You get me, you understand And you keep looking for better I’d move mountains just to be together I’m not the best, I tried my best I wish your heart would agree We don’t talk for a little bit of time And then you fade slightly from my mind Wish thinking of you was something I didn’t do What a waste of time That time when things were fine Seeing you made my night You smiled and looked my way Wanted to see you everyday Maybe I should let it go It’d be better to be alone And when you pop into my head I’ll think about something else instead I wish I could change your mind And share some of your time There’s no reason for me to stay When you don’t feel the same I hold on to what we had Even though it makes me sad I’m glad that I took that chance When I asked you to dance Remember when it felt nice When things just seemed right The look I saw in those eyes The way you looked that night It took a lot to ask you on a date Because I thought that you were great Years went by before I planted that kiss So many things that I will miss We don’t talk for a little bit of time And then you fade slightly from my mind Wish thinking of you was something I didn’t do What a waste of time Back and forth Back and forth Back and forth Back and forth

Jump through the hoops Take a look at your life What the hell is wrong? What the hell is right? Here we are now, the time Is ticking by So many questions… Who, what, where, when and why? Everything is different We’re not kids anymore This happens around every corner That’s what life has in store Let’s get to the top And push down everyone in our way Everything’s a struggle Something we experience every day Stress and problems adding up The kind of stuff that makes us tough Anxiety, how are you? The kind of stuff, we don’t know what to do Getting older’s killing me Let’s go back to how it used to be Wanting to stay up late Or wanting to go out and play Thinking back to a few years ago Wasting time at another punk/ska show Wait, that’s still who I am I don’t really give a damn I should accept how things progress And not get so stressed There is so much to life Everything will be alright Jump through the hoops Take a look at your life What the hell is wrong? What the hell is right? Here we are now, the time Is ticking by So many questions… Who, what, where, when and why? Everything is different We’re not kids anymore This happens around every corner That’s what life has in store Let’s get to the top And push down everyone in our way Everything’s a struggle Something we experience every day

This stagnant place Grew into a disgrace Far behind everyone in the world Our dominance has unfurled Fill up on routine To churn out things we have seen Your productivity’s thrown out the door Stagnation, settled for Cookie-cutter way of thinking Never helped anyone Mediocrity in the city Overrun Similarities of things That came before Bland, drab and useless We can’t take anymore …in this stagnant place We put up with the same And get comfortable for the ride Don’t settle for the worst And quelch your creative side Make that mind move Come up with something fresh We can’t wait to see what happens And what will come next Cookie-cutter way of thinking Never helped anyone Mediocrity in the city Overrun Similarities of things That came before Bland, drab and useless We can’t take anymore We run around, We run this race …in this stagnant place Make it new, Make it great …in this stagnant place Leave your mark, Leave a trace …in this stagnant place Do it now, Before it’s late …in this stagnant place We run around, We run this race …in this stagnant place Make it new, Make it great …in this stagnant place Cookie-cutter way of thinking Never helped anyone Mediocrity in the city Overrun Similarities of things That came before Bland, drab and useless We can’t take anymore In this stagnant place! In this stagnant place! In this stagnant place! In this stagnant place!

Overtime 03:49
Indebted to employers Tied down to a job The entire workforce Is one angry mob Play by the rules And do what they say To be a good employee Every single day Looking for that money That never seems to come Clamoring for that chance To have a little fun Here we go again Yet another year All this time spent In the name of a career Got to work some overtime Just to pay the bills The chances are dwindling Of enjoying life’s thrills Every penny matters You’ve got to save us to survive Looking for an income Just to stay alive We are always tired And never want to go out Want to stand on a corner And hear myself shout Servants to the dollar That’s what we’ve become Get away from that idea That your mind has spun Now we’re at the point Where there’s no turning back We have to set ourselves up And plan for the attack We are always miserable And we’re going out of our minds Just to make some money Have to work that overtime Got to work some overtime Just to pay the bills The chances are dwindling Of enjoying life’s thrills Every penny matters You’ve got to save us to survive Looking for an income Just to stay alive Time, we don’t know what we did with it Every single day, you would like to quit The strength and perseverance brought you to this point Working hard is your only choice Busy, that’s what we all are Put in the time, you think you’ll get far Optimists, pessimists, two sides to the coin Part of a workforce we unwillingly joined Sleep, so you can formulate those dreams You’re too busy to see the in-between Pass out for days, reached the end of your rope The thought of it being better, just to hold out hope Energy, it’s slowly going away None of us thought that we’d ever see the day Didn’t have to sleep, could have stayed up all night The days are flying by, this thing we call life Indebted to employers Tied down to a job The entire workforce Is on angry mob Here we go again Yet another year All this time spent In the name of a career

Question 04:15
The difference between The quizzical change Is what would happen When you feel deranged Question the world And make it a point To take a stand And raise your voice Sitting in The driveway Another humid night We go and Tell each other That everything is fine Our minds Start racing And we question ourselves The different Emotions That we have felt The difference between The quizzical change Is what would happen When you feel deranged Question the world And make it a point To take a stand And raise your voice Standing on The rooftop On the Brooklyn side Wonder why It’s a struggle For that peace of mind It’s difficult For what You want to achieve And when things Are going right It’s hard to believe We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the…world. We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the…world. We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the…world. We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the… We’re about to question the…world. Hanging out At your place A rainy afternoon How were We to know That we would age so soon? Everyone’s Attitudes Acting in desperation That nagging Feeling Of being frustrated! The difference between The quizzical change Is what would happen When you feel deranged Question the world And make it a point To take a stand And raise your voice
